ABSTRACT We tested the activities of ceftolozane-tazobactam and 13 other antimicrobial agents against 221 strains of Burkholderia cepacia complex and Burkholderia gladioli. Most strains (82%) were cultured from persons with cystic fibrosis, and most (85%) were recovered since 2011. The ceftolozane-tazobactam MIC was ≤8 μg/ml for 77% of the strains. However, the MIC range was broad (≤0.5 to >64 μg/ml; MIC50/90, 2/32 μg/ml). Significant differences in susceptibility to some antimicrobial agents were observed between species.

ABSTRACT Doripenem 50% inhibitory concentrations (MIC50) and 90% inhibitory concentrations (MIC90) for multidrug-resistant strains of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 200 strains), nonmucoid P. aeruginosa (n = 200), and Burkholderia cepacia complex (n = 200) isolated from patients with cystic fibrosis were 8 and 32, 8 and 64, and 8 and 32 μg/ml, respectively. Doripenem had somewhat better activity than established antimicrobial agents.

Abstract Background Few options remain for treatment of infections caused by multi-drug resistant (MDR), carbapenemase-producing gram-negative pathogens. Cefiderocol (CFDC; Shionogi & Co. Ltd), is a novel parenteral siderophore cephalosporin that enters the bacterial cell through the iron–siderophore uptake system. Here we report on the in vitro activity of CFDC against a set of well-characterized MDR gram-negative isolates collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Methods Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) values for CFDC in iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller Hinton broth were determined using reference broth microdilution. Study isolates (n = 315) included Enterobacteriaceae (59%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19%), Acinetobacter baumannii (17%), Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (4%), and Burkholderia cepacia complex (1%). Of these, 229 (73%) were carbapenemase-producers including Ambler Class A- (37%), Class B- (29%) and Class D- type (29%) enzymes. The remaining isolates included 51 β-lactam-resistant isolates that were non-carbapenemase-producers, and 35 β-lactam-susceptible isolates. Results were interpreted using suggested CFDC breakpoints of Sensitive ≤4 μg/mL and Resistant ≥16 μg/mL. Results The majority of the isolates (90.8%) were categorized as CFDC susceptible; the percentage of isolates with a CFDC MIC ≤4 μg/mL among Enterobacteriaceae, P. aeruginosa, and A. baumannii was 87.5%, 100%, and 89%, respectively. Percentage of isolates with a CFDC MIC ≤4 μg/mL that harbored a carbapenemase of the Class A-, Class B-, and Class D-type was 91.8%, 74.8%, 98.0%, respectively. By applying suggested breakpoints, 12 isolates were categorized as intermediate and 17 as resistant. The resistant isolates included 11 NDM-, 2 OXA-23- and 4 KPC-positive organisms. Conclusion Cefiderocol showed potent activity against MDR gram-negative pathogens including Class A, B, and D carbapenemase-producing isolates. Of note, all P. aeruginosa, including Class B metallo-β-lactamase producers, were susceptible to CFDC. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a new siderophore cephalosporin with potent in vitro activity against a broad range of Gram-negative (GN) pathogens, including carbapenem-nonsusceptible (Carb-NS) strains. We evaluated the in vitro activity of CFDC and comparator agents against recent clinical Carb-NS GN respiratory isolates collected from North America and Europe as part of the multi-national SIDERO-WT surveillance program. Methods A total of 2831 Carb-NS GN respiratory isolates collected from 2014 to 2017 were tested centrally (IHMA, Inc., Schaumburg, IL). Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined for CFDC, cefepime (FEP), ceftazidime–avibactam (CZA), ceftolozane-tazobactam (C/T), ciprofloxacin (CIP), colistin (CST), and meropenem (MEM) by broth microdilution and interpreted according to the 2018 CLSI guidelines. CFDC MICs were tested in iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller–Hinton broth, and interpreted according to the 2018 CLSI provisional breakpoints. Carb-NS strains were defined as MEM MIC of ≥2 µg/mL for Enterobacteriaceae (ENB) and of ≥4 µg/mL for nonfermenters (NF). Results CFDC exhibited predictable in vitro activity against 2807 clinically relevant Carb-NS GN isolates (214 ENB, 1086 A. baumannii complex, 693 P. aeruginosa, 794 S. maltophilia, and 20 Burkholderia cepacia) isolated from respiratory infections. CFDC was the most active agent against Carb-NS ENB with 97.7% susceptibility followed by 78.0% CZA, 59.4% CST, and 16.4% CIP. Against Carb-NS A. baumannii complex, CFDC demonstrated 94% susceptibility vs. 83.7% for CST. CFDC was the most active agent against Carb-NS P. aeruginosa with 99.9% susceptibility followed by 97.8% CST, 77.6% C/T, and 77.5% CZA. 99.7% of S. maltophilia and 100% of B. cepacia isolates had CFDC MICs of ≤4 µg/mL. The MIC90s of tested compounds for clinically relevant pathogens are shown in the table. Conclusion In a multinational collection of Carb-NS GN respiratory isolates, CFDC demonstrated potent in vitro activity with MIC90 of ≤4 µg/mL for all clinically relevant ENB and NF. These findings suggest that CFDC can be a potential option for the treatment of respiratory infections caused by Carb-NS ENB, A. baumannii complex, P. aeruginosa, S. maltophilia, and B. cepacia.

Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a novel parenteral siderophore cephalosporin with potent activity against a wide range of Gram-negative pathogens, including carbapenem-resistant strains. Additionally, a recently conducted in vivo murine-based study has demonstrated an incremental exposure-response profile over a dose range without the appearance of adaptive resistance. In this study, we evaluated the in vitro activity of CFDC and comparator agents against clinical isolates collected in 2015–2016 from North America from SIDERO-WT-2015 surveillance study. Methods A total of 3,602 isolates (2,470 Enterobacteriaceae, 223 A. baumannii, 85 Acinetobacter spp., 619 P. aeruginosa, 165 S. maltophilia and 17 Burkholderia cepacia, and 23 Burkholderia spp.) collected from the United States and Canada in 2015–2016 were tested. MICs were determined for CFDC, cefepime (FEP), ceftazidime–avibactam (CZA), ceftolozane–tazobactam (C/T), ciprofloxacin (CIP), colistin (CST), and meropenem (MEM) by broth microdilution and interpreted according to CLSI guidelines. As recommended by CLSI, cefiderocol was tested in iron-depleted cation-adjusted Mueller–Hinton broth (ID-CAMHB). Carbapenem nonsusceptible (Carb-NS) strains were defined as MEM MIC ≥2 µg/mL for Enterobacteriaceae, and ≥4 µg/mL for nonfermenters. Results CFDC exhibited potent in vitro activity against 3,602 strains of Gram-negative bacteria with an overall MIC90 of 0.5 mg/mL. As shown in the following table, MIC90 of CFDC against P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii, S. maltophilia, and Enterobacteriaceae including the subset of Carb-NS isolates were 0.5, 2, 0.5 and 0.5 mg/mL, respectively. At 4 mg/mL, CFDC inhibited the growth of 99.6% of the isolates while 18.1%, 12.6%, and 13.8% showed resistance to CZA, C/T, and CST, respectively. Conclusion CFDC demonstrated potent in vitro activity against the teat isolates collected from North America with greater than 99.6% of isolates having MIC values ≤4 mg/mL, including Carb-NS isolates of A. baumannii, P. aeruginosa, and Enterobacteriaceae. These findings indicate that this agent has high potential for treating infections caused by these problematic organisms. Disclosures M. Tsuji, Shionogi & Co., Ltd.: Employee, Salary. M.

ABSTRACT The in vitro activities of doripenem, imipenem, levofloxacin, piperacillin, ceftazidime, aztreonam, tobramycin, and cefepime were determined for 160 isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (82 from cystic fibrosis [CF] patients) and 34 isolates of Burkholderia cepacia. Doripenem MIC90s were lower than those of all other comparative agents against all isolates combined and against all P. aeruginosa isolates. Doripenem was as active as levofloxacin and 2- to 32-fold more active than the other comparative agents against B. cepacia.
